All of humanity was communist back when we were hunter-gatherers

hi

me and @Kin/Poni are best friends

yes they were

imagine being communist in the year of our lord

shut up bitch

The means of production were communally owned in hunter gatherer societies

They had no state or currency

no there was much territorial competition

The young and old and sick were taken care of

@ysiel kin/poni sent me her || || could you do the same

her what

<:pewish:395515961874055168>

me and kin/poni are in a lesbian relationship

oh alright

Yes but competition =/= capitalism

The young and old and sick were taken care of =/= communism either

The individual tribes themselves were communist

Yes but that's not the only thing

They were stateless, classless, no currency or private property, no markets, no commodity production etc

and almost went extinct several times

Due to natural disasters

i can give u proto-communist

so do you want to revert us to a hunter-gatherer era

but not communist

Or primitive communism as Marx described it

@rogalik no of course not
